Extragalactic Society

Extragalactic Society

History[]

During the time of theGalactic Republic, it was a member of theGeneral Ministry Institutes.^[1]

Just before the start of theClone Wars, the ExGal budget—along with the other General Ministry programs—was cut by 60%. This resulted in a greater use ofdroid exploration and a closing of several offices by the Society. Its president at this time wasTobbert Dalonbian.^[1]

By25 ABY, ExGal had at least fourlistening posts, withExGal-4 located onBelkadan. It was that outpost that finally discovered extragalactic life, in the form of an approachingPraetorite Vongship. TheYuuzhan Vong subsequently destroyed ExGal-4 and killed all of its scientists, except forDanni Quee.^[2]
